I know you wanna rag about my state, I'm just a fella from Delly
But I say FUCK where you from just to get the "KY" jelly
I manhandle bourbon NEVER challenge the champ with verses
like a plant in earth, this can of worms you opened turned your bluegrass worthless
I got a righty that could nighty Kimbo And Tank Abbot
Plus my heart pumps fluid colder than Anne Frank's attic.
Oh lemme guess, you ham cannon blammin? yosemite sammin?
Flippin keys, do a gram then shoot a man at random?
All that net thuggin' will get your head slugged in.
It's nuthin,
Trust, cousin if you buzzed at the club fuckin around with the drugs,youll get a THUMPIN
So keep bumpin your gums, if I catch you in public, you're done, you'll get DUGGAN'D
But your older sister's naughty and nasty. You outta just ask me.
the hottest in your family She WASPy and trampy
Your pops got shitty shotty aim, he wanna flip triggers
Cause I put a crack in his southern belle, then I stuck my dick in her
Pass-ion-ate-ly.
I was even hittin that G-spot on the back of her knees
It was like having The Roots too loud how I was blastin The Seed
Your parents are some Jesus Freaks, but you say they're not like yourself
Uncle was a grand wizard, wanted to see all kikes in hell
This shit right here's payback so don't cry for help
When I put you over my knee and beat you with the bible belt
...go fight yourself faggot.

You’ve had it easy in life, so I don’t really know if you mean what you being mean about/
I never take the easy route, Cubs fan, so I know what it means to be missing out/
On the other hand, you’re a cubs fan cause you know how it feels like to be a scout/

But your chest of badges can’t protect you from this theft of status/
My best is half this… if you don’t catch my buzz, I’ll Lay It Down like the Illmac classic/

You battled Choppa in the BVA, and now you think you’re some sort of threat?
I could give a fuck less about your success, you beating me? Now that’s some bet/
I’m a little upset, cutlass, say hello to knife--neck, gun--chest; cut flesh like I’m giving out blood tests/

After the battle expect to get neg repped, so pay attention and make sure that you get this/
I’ll sneak into your house to find you laying in a bedrest, pull the chrome out and make sure that your head’s split/
The family’ll find his head hanging by the string of his necklace; let me make a correction/
They won’t know what to think of his top, like the end to Inception/

You’re dead either way, so I’ll let you be the chooser of weapons/
The ruger would wreck him, the tool would get used to deliver the usual death wish/
It’s unusual this fool would consider abusing my intuitive mentions/
One slight move and he’s to be assumed as a dead man/
History moves towards redemption, to Brutus, the truth is he’s Julius’ best man/
So if the emperor can be killed by a slew of his brethren, a Sir is nothing short than a meal for my henchman.

No Sir - man you had some really wicked and sick shit in this verse. The flow was really hot, and i liked the images, it was visceral and hard hitting. That said alot of the insults didnt seem to be at him, more at his family or his girl, which bugged me, I wanted you to tear him up,. You had some really funny lines too, the roots loud line was my fav and real creative

Prole -I think alot of cats are gonna sleep on the witty, intelligent verse you dropped, some of your references are whip-smart and funny in their own way, albeit not as in-your-face. your use of internals is pretty great, some cats might sleep on that too and just look at line length without really seeing how it actually flows nice.

Vote -Prole i just felt he was more consistent from top to bottom, NoSir had fire and then kinda fell off at the end. Great battle

No Sir E made me laugh. He clowned his opponent, used good puns and references. He was a little sawed-off on a few parts, but it was an enjoyable enough read.

Got to TheProle and his entrance wasnt very good, first by swinging at himself and capping off at the third bar, kinda jerked the whole flow. Some people do that, I never cared for it.

---- This is tight I liked the way it flowed but clever threats of violence never measure up against personal humor to me. Hollow threats dont ever work for me unless theres something its relating to personally like a name-play.

It’s unusual this fool would consider abusing my intuitive mentions/

--- Again, bars like these you can do without. Exercise more creativity with jokes.

Not 1 name-play in this entire battle smh

The problem here is that personals are only a part of what a punchline is,and after awhile personal punches become predictable and repetitive. Punchlines using subject matter that aren't always personals is ALSO a show of creativity...it's just not your PREFERENCE. The use of visuals like TheProle's bars:

"I’m a little upset, cutlass, say hello to knife--neck, gun--chest; cut flesh like I’m giving out blood tests...
You’re dead either way, so I’ll let you be the chooser of weapons/
The ruger would wreck him, the tool would get used to deliver the usual death wish/..."

are also punchlines,they're just street violent macho testosterone "bad man" punches. They carry zing and oomph to them,as everyone recognizes the lethal power of a firearm. TheProle also added humor to the mix,and that's always desirable.

This is why we need a Voting Guideline. With a fair Voting Guideline,your PREFERENCE is given props but THE SUBSTANCE AND QUALITY OF A VERSE THAT ISN'T YOUR PREFERENCE ISN'T SHORTED. Threats are the very essence of punches and disses...on the streets they're called "fighting words". Now if your verse is ONLY "threats",that just limited your punchlines. Clearly,the best approach is to employ an assortment of punchlines in a verse as that compels creativity and fresh material.Propping one approach over another simply weights your verse in that area and neglects other aspects of quality rap that are just as vital.

I have no problem with yoru vote and your preferences,but one's preferences shouldn't blind one to the power of a verse that isn't your preferred style.

This was not so much a battle of punchlines but more of a battle of flow and wits...
No sir started off slow but picked it up at the end, he had a few haymakers but what stood out was his flow throughout and pure grimeyness,
Prole did not hesitate to take it right back at his opponent and started swinging from the gate, I think proles punchlines were more complete overall as far as originality and execution, the multies an flow was crazy as help as well
